Annotation Type Stringify


@Retention(RUNTIME) @Target(FIELD) public @interface Stringify

This annotation establishes a Stringifier for a field. This is used for embedded Map structures that require something other than a String key; for example, you may want to have a Mapinvalid input: '<'Long, Thing>. A Stringifier can convert the Long to the required String key type.
